Looks like the @DefinedDesignpost is about Ply Gem windows. I'd never get into the specifics of window or door opening sizes unless the job's being panelized, and I size windows (not their ROs) in whole inches, always dimensioning to centers.

You need to know the mullion spec for that manufacturer's factory-mulled windows in that particular product line. It might be zero, or maybe a half inch, but whatever it is it is used by you in placing and joining the windows. Those manufacurer's sizing charts are the resource, or a quote can be used as you show. If you really want to get into the weeds, you can go to the maker's site and bore in to get .pdf views or CAD downloads of mull sections.

Get busy modeling it piece by piece using solids. Only two or three parts to do, then it's all repeat up a distribution path. It is an accessory, just like a kitchen cabinet pullout, but I doubt the maker has made a 3D model you can download.

@BenMerrittI cannot open the program at all unless I go the "open as administrator" route. A double-click on the desktop icon results in a little spinning circle, but it goes away, and the program won't open. Same behavior if I right-click and click "open." No open. I've no idea how I can find a data file tagged "owned by administrator." Been a user since 10.08 and never had this issue.

I installed it yesterday and I can only run it as an administrator. Where do I go to change this?

I just downloaded X17, set it up to import everything from X16, opened the file I'd been working on, and it locked up at 25 slow passes into a PBR render. X16 blitzed the PBR which was set with a 50 pass max and lines drawn over no extends no squiggle. Now X17 cannot open the file and shows me this.

I see the diff in the gable and also above below and adjacent the front windows. Have you tried simply eyedropping from good and painting on bad?

If I'm dimensioning lot line to building corner, I'll want my dimension to be normal to the lot line rather than the other way. It's all about the setback, and setback's parallel. CAD's my friend for this dimensioning setup.

Thanks, Shayne. I framed manually, really only to be able to show it in a 2D floorplan detail. I'm told that everywhere in the New England states, builders strap every ceiling, even those when the members they are strapping over are 16" on center. I guess lumber and labor are free in Massachusetts. Interesting that Chief lets you put a layer there in ceiling finish with the "framing" option checkbox, which opens the on-center-spacing dialog box for spec, but then does not autoframe. Maybe I'll write a suggestion.

If it's the switch for the sink grinder, do it with a plunger air switch.

I specified my porch ceilings, which I want to finish in LP panel fixed to 1 x 3 strapping, in the FINISH part of structure, 3/4-thickness framing layer, 16" centers, 2.5" wide, above the 0.354 panel. This is a change. I formerly specified the ceiling finish as a single later panel, fixed directly to the truss chords above. I try autoframing the room's ceiling and do not get the strapping I expect. What might I try next? I've framing built everywhere else and have edited quite a bit, so I only want to frame these ceilings.

First thing I though of was hey would't it be good if we had a way to do material regions on roof planes. But that would be tedious for all the houses with more, maybe a lot more, then two or four planes. They there would be the need for properly raised hip and ridge caps, and a way to properly do valleys, holding the roof ribs back from the valley lines. So I though, OK, Revit must certainly be able to 3D model standing seam. But this video suggests no, because it is by a Revit user doing it with a workaround that uses Revit's "greenhouse roofs" tools.

I was sloppy when creating it, a ten-line schedule. Realized I had two redundancies, 7 and 8, duplicating 1 and 2. Deleted the 1s and 2s and copied in 7s and 8s where they are, and now have an 8-line schedule beginning with 3. How can I make it 1 through 8?

OMG thanks Chief! I recall making the suggestion for this, which is particularly huge for users who do lots of kitchens and need photoreal renderings.

I want to use the schedule for ONLY floor finish, but I want to be able to edit the material names. Is this possible? I looked around can cannot find anything.
